201: Shock.
Lea was confused and thought the little girl was just saying random things. But Juliet tugged lightly at her sleeve and repeated herself."I also want to perform..."Lea smiled gently and said, "It's okay. You don't have to perform if you can't."She didn't think little Juliet could play the instrument.After all, the piano wasn't something an ordinary child could simply sit down and play.But Juliet persisted."I want to..."Before she could finish speaking, Ella noticed them and immediately drew everyone's attention in their direction."Oh? It seems the kid also wants to try out the instrument," Ella said with a smile.The moment she spoke, laughter erupted throughout the hall.Many guests turned around to stare at Lea and Juliet. Some looked amused while others openly mocked them. Ella smirked and continued."If the child wants to come and play, why not let her? She doesn't have to be perfect at all. She can come and make a mess of herself too! She's only a kid!"More laughter foll
202: Professional.
"Is this for real? Can she actually play like this?" one of them asked, completely speechless. "That melody... that's the level of a professional pianist! How can such a young child play something like this?" "I've never seen a kid perform such a perfect piece before. But this little girl, who isn't even from a wealthy background, can play it so effortlessly? How is that possible?" "This sounds incredible. The melody is flawless! It's better than anything I've heard at a professional concert. It's even better than the first performers!" "The first duo didn't perform anything impressive at all. This is what you call a true gem of a performance!" The audience was completely stunned. Lea herself was shocked by how incredible Juliet's skills were. She had no idea where the little girl had learned to play so well. At that moment, however, she didn't ask any questions. Instead, she simply followed along. The two of them played together, their fingers moving smoothly across the keys
203: Silence
The party continued as normal. People drank wine, chatted with one another, and enjoyed themselves. The atmosphere remained lively throughout the hall.However, many guests were still discussing Juliet's performance.The little girl had become the center of attention after her astonishing piano performance.Some praised her talent.Others wondered where she had learned such incredible skills.Many simply couldn't stop talking about her."I still can't believe she played like that.""She's definitely a genius.""That child has a bright future ahead of her."Similar comments could be heard throughout the venue.While most people were impressed, not everyone was happy about it.The Maxwell family certainly wasn't.They hated seeing Dylan and Juliet receive so much attention.Oliver and Emily were especially displeased.Emily's expression darkened every time she heard someone praising Juliet.This was the very child she had abandoned.The child she had considered worthless.So why was she
204: Speechless
Dylan was stunned by how shameless Emily was. He couldn't believe she was willing to make up such a ridiculous lie just to embarrass him and his daughter in public.His expression darkened as he glared at her."What rubbish are you talking about now?" Dylan demanded. "Have you no shame at all?"Emily merely scoffed."Shame? Rubbish?" she repeated mockingly. "Nothing I've said is rubbish. It's the truth."She folded her arms and looked at him with contempt."When we were married, I thought you were loyal. Who would have thought you'd secretly have a child with another woman outside the marriage? Now tell me, who's the shameless one?"The crowd instantly erupted into whispers. Everyone looked at Dylan and Juliet with shock. Their eyes were filled with disbelief."What?""The child isn't theirs?""I can't believe what I'm hearing.""So Dylan cheated during the marriage?""I never expected something like that from him."The whispers quickly spread through the hall.People who had admired
205: Time
Dylan scoffed. "I never thought you'd stoop so low as to say such disgusting things about your own daughter."But Emily immediately snapped back."Shut up! That thing isn't my daughter! Go and find her real mother!"Then she turned toward Mr. Hill with a smile on her face."So for your own good, it's best to avoid them now before you end up regretting it in the future," she warned firmly.Then she handed him a file."Instead, work with us. Our company has a lot to offer, and we can provide you with opportunities that others can't. Take a look and think about it carefully."Mr. Hill was already shocked by everything that had happened. Emily's words only made him begin rethinking the situation.The last thing he wanted was to get dragged into some public scandal.After a brief moment of hesitation, he made his decision.He politely excused himself from Dylan's side and walked toward Emily and Oliver.The couple immediately smiled."Come, let's discuss the details properly!" they said as
206: Revelation
Dylan smiled as he began his speech by thanking everyone for attending the event and for giving him the chance to speak.He expressed his gratitude to Mr. Walker for inviting him and his family to the gathering. He also sincerely thanked Mr. Lee for helping him and showing him trust when most people had already turned their backs on him.As he spoke, everyone was confused.No one understood where he was going with this speech or what he was even trying to accomplish. They had expected him to defend himself or perhaps beg for sympathy.Instead, he was standing there giving a polite speech.Many people exchanged puzzled looks.Still, they listened attentively, curious to see what he was planning.Some were even waiting for an opportunity to laugh at him again.Then Dylan smiled and said,"In my life, the people I want to thank the most are the Maxwell family."The entire hall fell silent.Everyone looked confused.The members of the Maxwell family immediately became alert as they stared
207: Gasp!
Everyone gasped at that statement.Their eyes immediately shifted from the stage to where Emily and Oliver were seated."Huh? What's this?""What's happening?""Did I hear that right?"The crowd erupted into chaos.Nobody had expected such a shocking revelation.Dylan smiled as he continued."Yeah. You heard me right."He pointed toward Emily and Oliver."Those two over there were the ones who cheated. While we were still married, she had an affair with him and abandoned both me and our daughter for him."The entire venue exploded with discussion.People whispered among themselves while staring at Emily and Oliver in disbelief.Many of them had always viewed the couple as successful, loving, and respectable.Who would have thought there was such a scandal hidden behind their perfect image?Immediately, Emily shot to her feet."Shut up!"Her face twisted with anger."What kind of rubbish are you talking about? You're slandering us!""Exactly!"Oliver also stood up, his face dark with f
208: Confidence.
The audience was left completely speechless.Everyone stared at the screen and then at Emily and Oliver, struggling to process what they had just witnessed."I can't believe this...""I always thought they were a respectable couple.""I never imagined they were cheating behind his back.""What a shame.""What kind of mother says her own daughter can die?"The crowd couldn't stop talking.Many people shook their heads in disappointment.Others looked at Emily and Oliver with open disgust.Just moments ago, the two of them had been standing proudly, mocking Dylan and acting as though they had already won.Now everything had changed.The truth had been exposed right in front of everyone.Their carefully crafted image had shattered beyond repair.Every guest seemed to have something to say about the scandal.Meanwhile, Emily and Oliver sat quietly in their seats.Neither of them spoke.Neither of them dared to.Their faces were pale with shame.They had never expected this outcome.In fac
209: Information
Dylan had also obtained this information from the system.The system had provided him with all the CCTV footage related to that night, allowing him to review everything that had happened from different angles. After going through the recordings carefully, Dylan selected the clearest and most important clips.Without saying another word, he played the footage on the giant screen behind him for everyone to see.The entire venue immediately fell silent.Every pair of eyes turned toward the screen.No one spoke.No one dared to interrupt.Everyone watched the shocking footage unfold before them.The video showed the events from that night in clear detail.It began with the moment Mr. Walter realized that an important file had gone missing.The footage showed him becoming anxious as he searched for the documents.Guests could be seen helping him look around while security personnel were alerted.At first, nothing seemed unusual.Then the footage changed.A man appeared on the screen.And t
210; Downfall
The Maxwell family were completely speechless.None of them had anything left to say.They couldn't question the investigator because they knew he was telling the truth.Everything shown on the screen had happened exactly as he described.Mr. and Mrs. Maxwell exchanged panicked looks.For the first time that night, they truly felt cornered.Their usual confidence had completely vanished.No matter how hard they tried to think of an excuse, they couldn't come up with anything convincing.The evidence was simply too overwhelming.The investigator looked directly at Mr. Maxwell before speaking again."Mr. Maxwell, do you have anything to say in your defense?"His voice was calm but firm."Because everything Mr. Dylan showed tonight has been verified."The investigator paused before continuing."And I'm sure you know it happened, so please stop lying."The hall became silent once more.Everyone waited to hear Mr. Maxwell's response.Unfortunately for him, the investigator wasn't finished.
